...more than $2 billion since its conception. If we continue pouring money down the nuclear drain, we will not have the resources or the will to invest in other energy sources. The final cost of Seabrook alone is more than twice the federal government's total annual investment in solar research and development...
...enough to catalog the disadvantages of nuclear power. There must also be a better alternative. To meet the nation's future energy demands, as well as New England's--which have actually grown more slowly than expected--we should put our efforts into energy conservation and solar power...
...plants throughout New England would supply more energy cheaper than the Seabrook nukes ever could. But if Seabrook is built, it will pick up whatever excess energy needs New England may develop over the next few years, and the utilities will be able to argue against increased use of solar and other renewable energy sources as unnecessary. And we will all continue to live with the threat of possible nuclear annihilation, and with the certainty of radiation-induced genetic damage and cancer increasingly occurring...
...twenty-first century before other energy sources can completely replace fission power. But we want, and demand, more: no more plants must be built, all construction must stop where it is now, and we must move immediately towards a non-nuclear future through intensified conservation measures, widespread use of solar power and development of alternative, safe, renewable, decentralized energy sources...
...some kind of moratorium. The government is trying to make nukes safe so they can continue to operate--but nukes are inherently dangerous, and we will be satisfied with nothing less than an immediate shutdown of all existing nuclear plants and a massive redirection of this country towards a solar future...
